Coming Soon: Hay West Councillor - VOTE HEAGLE Campaign
Heagle
for Bluewater
I am ready to bring new leadership to Bluewater Council.
With over 30 years of business experience, legal expertise, and a life spent giving back through volunteering - I promise to listen, work hard, and help lead our community with integrity.

Trusted Leadership and Vision
As Board Chair of Huron Health System and Vice-Chair of the Bluewater Heritage Advisory Committee, I am deeply connected to our community with a strong understanding and appreciation for its history, people and places.
A relentless commitment to community service has shaped my life and career. I have served as YMCA Board Chair, co-host of The Issue (current affairs show) and in other leadership roles as a director, governor, officer, counsel and founder with numerous charities and not-for-profit organizations - including hospitals, foundations, local capital projects, a municipal social inclusivity committee, a new performing arts center and youth basketball leagues.
I was also recognized by my former hometown as its 2009 Citizen of the Year.
I'm about teamwork. An effective leader must be attentive, proactive and respectful. It's about doing the right thing, and getting things done. I have always believed what you do for others is more meaningful than what you say.
I will bring all those skills, values and experiences to our local government.
You deserve a Councillor who lives in Hay West. A neighbour who knows you. A Councillor who is transparent, responsible and responsive to your needs.
Together, let's create a bold vision and take real steps to ensure Bluewater is stronger, healthier, and more connected for everyone.
Putting People First
My wife, Ria, and I love Bluewater. Our Hay West home is also a family retreat for our 5 adult children and 4 grandchildren (so far!).
After a long and fulfilling career in corporate law, I retired in 2024 as a partner of the firm that I co-founded, managed and grew. That decision has allowed me to devote more time and energy to our incredible community.
My desire is to continue to serve Bluewater as your elected representative for Hay West on Council. The election will be held on October 26, 2026.
I promise to use my voice to amplify and advocate for what truly matters most to all of us - including the evolving and escalating concerns regarding the shoreline, bluff erosion, water quality and wastewater services, environmental protection, infrastructure, local and regional health care, residential development, Bluewater's Official Plan, zoning by-laws, heritage protection, housing, property values and taxes, affordability and financial sustainability.
As a servant-leader, I wholeheartedly believe in the value of early dialogue and genuine collaboration with others. That's especially the case when faced with difficult issues or unpopular positions.
Our collective quality of life will be at the heart of every decision and vote I make as your Councillor.
Priorities
You deserve a Councillor who lives in Hay West. A neighbour who knows you.
I live in Hay West and offer new leadership. It's time to chart a thoughtful, clear and neighborhood-focused path for Hay West. This roadmap will be shaped by listening and sharing.
With over 30 years of business experience and community leadership, I am ready to serve your interests and move them forward.
During this campaign, I will knock on your doors and connect with you in other meaningful ways, so I can learn more about what truly matters most to you.
Open, Proven Leadership
I rely on hard facts and solid research to make informed decisions. I promise to be approachable, accountable and dialogue regularly to keep you in the loop.
Fiscal Responsibility
As your Councillor, I will focus heavily on the municipality spending money wisely to keep our community a safe, prosperous and beautiful place for a very long time.
Community Engagement
I will strive to improve communications by the municipality with all residents so that everyone is better informed, with more ways and opportunities to be heard.
